WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.
Name of product: Life is good® Children's Sweatshirts

Sold at: www.RedEnvelope.com from March 2006 through March 2007 for about $35.
